4
steps to a weed-free lawn!
Here's
all you do to rid your lawn of those dandelions
and broadleaf weeds, using Fred Meyer Weed
& Feed 26-3-3:
- Let the lawn grow out to about its normal
cutting point.
- Water the lawn thoroughly first.
- While the lawn is moist, apply Fred
Meyer Weed & Feed.
- Don't water for 36-48 hours after application.
Then resume normal watering and mowing.
This time of year…check the weather reports
for rain!
For
best results, use Fred Meyer Weed &
Feed now through May when weeds are young,
tender and easy to control.
Fred
Meyer Weed & Feed is an excellent fertilizer
as well as a broadleaf weed control. It
provides over 1 lb. of Nitrogen per 1000
sq. ft. – which the Lawn Institute recommends.
Fred
Meyer Weed & Feed contains 15% slow
release nitrogen derived from Sulphur-coated
Urea. The nitrogen is released over time
as the sulphur is melted by either rainfall
or irrigation.
Fred
Meyer Weed & Feed contains a 3-way weed
killer called Trimec. Trimec contains three
different weed killers – 2, 4-D, MCPP and
Dicamba. Trimec is a systemic herbicide
that as well as entering the weed through
the leaf surface, also enters it through
the root. The synergy of the three herbicides
controls a broader spectrum of weeds than
products that only use two herbicides. An
added benefit to using Trimec in Fred Meyer
Weed & Feed is that it is a very slow
and gentle herbicide. You won't see a lot
of dead weeds in the lawn – but you WILL
notice a weed-free lawn in two to three
weeks!
